you are or providing any information about yourself. In some
areas of the Site, we ask you to provide information that

issues or to follow up with you. Generally,

On an ongoing basis, Avenue Road Baptist
Church uses file-storage and retrieval methods for
organizational operations. As a service provider, maintenance of personal contact
information in various forms (i.e. text, pictures) are
stored on PC's (personal computers), and other electronic
devices (e.g. hand-held devices, external hard-drives, etc.)
and in some cases, contact information in a secure online
environment (e.g. email lists, phone lists, etc.).

networking information, and will only be handled in ways

other than to carry out the services for
